“Technology should empower communities and create positive change.”

I'm passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems, support communities, and create positive change. As the founder of WeWomen, I've built a fast-growing platform for women in tech with over 500 members, offering mentorship programs, resources, and community events.

Whether I'm working on meaningful products and impactful user experiences at Wayfair or teaching and mentoring 250+ students, I focus on collaborative projects that make a real difference. My approach combines technical excellence with genuine care for the communities I serve.

My experience in teaching and mentoring has shaped how I approach technology—always considering the human impact and ensuring that complex solutions remain accessible and user-friendly. I believe in building not just scalable systems, but sustainable communities.

Engineering Philosophy

I believe in writing code that tells a story—clean, purposeful, and maintainable. Every line should serve a purpose, every function should have a clear responsibility, and every system should be designed with the end user in mind.

Professional Experience

From founding WeWomen to empower 500+ women in tech, to building meaningful products at Wayfair and teaching 250+ students, I focus on creating practical impact and collaborative solutions.
